Queensland Museum Kurilpa

A playful, inclusive art activation celebrating fashion and self-expression through immersive creative drawing. All materials are provided, so all you need to do is dive into this creative chaos and enjoy!

Unleash your inner artist and let your creativity run riot at HOTMESS x Make A Scene. Inspired by Queensland Museum's fabulous Make A Scene: Fashioning Queer Identity and Club Culture in the 90s exhibition, this outrageous, hands-on art experience is an unmissable invitation to strut your stuff on paper. Created by multidisciplinary artists Sophie May and Gabrielle Miller, HOTMESS is part immersive theatre, part life drawing, and part artistic liberation.

With each captivating tableau crafted by HOTMESS, expect a mashup of costumes, music, and live artistic energy that transcends boundaries. Expect a banquet of food for thought, a bit of heat in your seat, and a smile on your dial.

This experience is perfect for seasoned artists and first-time sketchers alike. At its heart, it's a celebration of community, individuality, and radical self-expression..
